One mistake can save your life.
Lori Leigh is a successful jewelry artisan, but her love life is a mess. Her live-in boyfriend, Kent, is more interested in making a movie than building their relationship. Thinking a fresh start might help, Lori persuades Kent to move to Las Vegas, where he can meet stars and she can reunite with her best friend, Elly, but it isn't long before he's spending more time in California than at home. With Elly happily married, Lori is lonely and looking for love.
When the women run out of gas during a day trip in the desert, a mysterious stranger and his adorable dog stop to help. Lori is smitten by the handsome man's looks, while Elly senses danger. She tries to warn her friend, but Lori is used to judging the world by appearances, and the guy is a definite hunk. Later, when Lori and the stranger meet again by chance, she makes an impulsive decision that might cost her life-and that's only her first mistake.
Losing Lorelei is a story about how the past influences the future in more ways than we realize, especially when faulty assumptions and false pretenses cloud the truth. But most of all, Losing Lorelei is a story of redemption. Because, if you're very lucky, one mistake can save your life.
